I have had stomach cramping, loose, light-colored bowel movements, and some clear mucus for about 3 or 4 days. Is this serious or possibly a virus or gastritis? Should I take Immodium? I have been drinking fluids including Gatorade and eating light.

Your symptoms are most likely due to a viral infection of the gut, commonly known as gastroenteritis...

My husband has a half-inch scab on his lower leg from an old wound. After his shower today, there is a distinct red line several inches from the scab. He is 88 years old and has various types of arthritis. Should we see urgent care now or our regular family medicine tomorrow? In the meantime, should we keep the wound clean and covered?

My 13-year-old son has one nipple larger than the other. When you squeeze the larger nipple, it feels hard, but when you squeeze the smaller nipple, it doesn't. Is this a new finding, and has it been there for a while?
